BRAND POWER

A name that commands instant respect and trust the world over

A CENTURY OF “FIRSTS”

Continuing a legacy established by the Coldwell Banker® brand, the Coldwell Banker Global Luxury® program sets the gold standard for modern luxury real estate marketing. Through the decades, the brand has continually exhibited the true spirit of innovation. From San Francisco's Financial District in 1906 to Manhattan's prestigious Madison Avenue in 1933, when luxury real estate marketing was revolutionized by capturing fine estate homes on film, to a worldwide presence today with an ever-evolving technology portfolio and bespoke marketing services.

An elegantly reimagined Coldwell Banker Global Luxury logo made its much-celebrated debut in 2020 — effectively reflecting the exceptional nature of the Luxury Property Specialist network as well as our distinguished clientele. Always looking ahead, the program continues to provide representation that crosses oceans, continents and language barriers, backed by the power of a heritage that spans generations of excellence.

STRATEGIC PRICING ANALYSIS

A strategic pricing analysis, or SPA, is a report that pulls data from the multiple listing service (MLS) based on buyer and seller activity in your area. Information in your SPA includes:

HIGH-END properties in your area that recently sold

HIGH-END properties in your area that failed to sell

Pending sales in your area

HIGH-END active listings in your area

We will use this information to develop a pricing and positioning strategy that creates a perception of value, makes your property competitive, and generates excitement among buyers.

Market Evaluation

MARKET EVALUATION

The best price obtainable for your home will ultimately be determined by the dynamics of the market, including factors such as:

1. Location

2. Buyer Demand

3. Financing

If the asking price of a property increases beyond fair market value, the pool of potential buyers decreases the number of showings and the percentage of qualified buyers viewing your home.
